Ali, we do try not to remove threads unless we have to. Bearing in mind that there is the webteam and there are also moderators that aren't part of the webteam. Something I've identified as an issue is that we don't all belong to the same mailing list and sometimes we have communications breakdowns which leads to an inconsistent implementation. That's our fault but we are fixing it.
2) That is a webteam policy so that you know who has performed the work. There are however, instances where a blanket statement needs to made from the webteam and it is more appropriate that these types of post are done without that so they are not personalised.
And Ali, we have already identified you as a future deviant and if you take a look around you now you will see (or may not if we've hired the right people) the webcams we've put in place to monitor you in every location. Please be aware that we can have you neutralised at any moment.
